    My brother works for XPO up north and got me interested in team driving. I just got out of the military, so I'm trying to find a new career path to follow. I need to find a company willing to pay me as well as train me because I just don't have enough money saved to cover bills for that long. My ultimate goal is to start Team driving ASAP, and if they can't place me with someone that's fine, I have another friend trying to do the same thing. I've already looked into Prime Inc., but I don't want to limit my options. Any help would be very appreciated, and thank you for your time.

    Where is your location? If you're in the hiring area, KLLM Transport probably has what you want.

    South Florida, A lot of the companies I've called said that I was out of there hiring range. I'm trying to start by this time next month. I haven't tried Roehl yet but the few things I've heard about them weren't very pleasant. Take everything with a grain of salt though i guess.

    Ignore the crybabies. They have a trucking job, but you don't. The drivers that are content, don't usually post reviews.

    How close are you to Miami or Hialeah?
    Dot Foods Transportation has a terminal there. Excellent company with good paychecks.
